The issue I find with the surface is that it just isn’t lapable. Using it on my lap is nearly impossible. Good on a desk though.

I have been using terminal almost exclusively for about a decade or more. But, when I started I just decided to do it. And that meant that every time I wanted to do something, it would take me forever because I would have to look it up. Eventually, I got faster and faster and now anything I want to do with a gui, I can almost certainly do faster with terminal.
I have used a number of distros over the last 15 years. Once I found one I liked, I stuck with it. I understand the package manager, some of the special features of the distro I use and I don’t really have time to relearn this every couple of months on new distros.
If I want a different “feel”, I change my DE. But that’s about it.
I think so. But it would be hard and I would be surprised if anyone besides Valve could pull it off.
I have a second batch steam deck and still play it often. I wish it had a slightly bigger OLED screen. I think the 16x10 8inch equivalent is a good size.
There would also need to be a fairly decent CPU and GPU upgrade. As well as either an efficiency upgrade or a bigger battery. I think with enough time if we could get a decent arm CPU with good GPU performance, but that is likely not going to happen anytime soon, this could theoretically hit all of these requirements.
I would like to see hall effect sticks and triggers by default.
That could dethrone the steam deck. Especially if it had good linux support, either steam os or bazzite would be good for me.
Lol that is what you said. My bad. Must have read it wrong. That’s on me.
That is true. But I have an overall better experience getting KDE to look like gnome.
I started on gnome. I love it at first, but as time has gone on my experience with gnome had gotten worse and worse, and my KDE experience keeps getting better. It’s a real shame because I actually tend to prefer the gnome look at feel, but KDE has been so much more usable for me in recent years.
Atari 2600. Got in a few years ago from my in laws. Still hook it up and play berzerk from time to time.
I love Fedora. But, part of my day job is also managing linux servers. I tend to recommend things that I think are the easiest to get running. Although Fedora is super easy to get running (at least to me), I find the installation process of mint or pop os to be much easier overall. Between those two OSes, I have moved several people from windows to fulltime linux and I’m not entirely sure that the conversion would have been as successful with fedora and without more help from me during the install process.
If a random reddit post is correct and he was 84 years old, I can only hope to have the same drive and mental ability at that age. RIP.
My job is working with a ton of servers over ssh. Bash is the most convenient balance between features and not needing to do any setup.
I am on a pixel 7 with graphene OS. Been great. Ive been using this phone for about a year or so now.
Played this on steam remote play together. Worked well.
I play about 50% of my playtime on my steam deck. I reduced my shooters because even though I like gyro aiming it still will never be as good as my keyboard and mouse.
My bad! You may have totally said that and I missed that part.
You might want to look at the dell XPS 13 series. Their small bezels in the more recent models put them more in line with a MacBook 11 inch. Might be best bang for the buck as far as performance.
I am super partial to old ThinkPads. Currently I am running an x1 yoga gen 4 that I got from a company that was recycling it for free. I also have a P52, and a t460s. All have been great. I have used several others including an x230, an x201, a w520, w530 and w540(least favorite due to the trackpad). Generally I like to stop at about the Intel 8th gen series as parts are usually still fairly serviceable and affordable.
I like KDE. But when I need x11 or something lighter weight, I use budgie.
At this point in my life I would use Fedora Budgie/Xfce/lxde for a lightweight distro. Atomic or not. Lately I’ve been into atomic, but there are some scenarios and software I use that do not play well with the immutable OS.
I find stuff like this a little bit condescending and cringe. But, at the end of the day I believe groups have the right to associate with who they please, I just won’t join any of these groups.
This opinion is unpopular among all but one of my friends, but I actually find tank controls to be fairly intuitive. If I haven’t played one in a while it takes me about 10 minutes to adjust, but after that, it is second nature for me. But I did play a ton of RE as a kid. Maybe that’s why.
